Ishaan, was bought in February this year in the IPL 2022 mega auction for Rs 15.5 crore. In 14 innings here, his bat scored 418 runs at an average of 32.15, which included three half-centuries. Five-time champions Mumbai Indians failed to make the playoffs. Ishan was then selected for the home series against South Africa in June, where he scored two half-centuries. Despite this, he was given very few chances in England and West Indies. Only two matches in six matches. His scores in the last six international innings were 27, 15, 3, 8 and 11, which could be one of the reasons why the selectors did not bet on Kishan.
Meanwhile, in the Asia Cup squad, India has selected two frontline wicketkeepers. Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik will strengthen the batting lineup in the middle order and finish the game.
Indian team:
Rohit Sharma (capt), KL Rahul (vice-captain), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (wk), Deepak Hooda, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravi Bishnoi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan.
